Of course, when Emily does find out what Kumail has been doing, she breaks up with him. Before he can win her back, Emily falls ill with a bizarre illness that puts her in a coma. For weeks, Kumail sits by her bedside, next to her parents (played by Hunter and Romano), whom he’s never met.
The Big Sick, for all of these trials and tribulations, manages to be both funny and tragic. Kumail’s interactions with Beth, Emily’s mom, are brilliant. Holly Hunter clearly loves to play a hardass, and she does so here with delightful results. Romano is, of course, Romano.
